The Last of Us
Episode description
Join Bryan and Clint for a discussion of Naughty Dog’s critical darling from 2013… and 2014… and of course, 2022! The Last of Us was, and remains, a landmark video game in the action-adventure sphere and continues to be the standard for character-driven narratives in gaming. Joel and Ellie’s cross-country road trip is just as exciting today as it was the day it launched, but the technical upgrade it received with “Part 1” is worth discussing in its own right. On the heels of its 2022 re-release, and as the franchise looks to expand into an upcoming HBO series, the guys felt there was no better time to revisit this PS3 (and PS4, and PS5) classic and provide their perspective on what makes it a game for the ages.
